before I got phunk's fuel system fix, I would just drive off the track and to the gas station after every session and let them cool that way.


btw, with the akebono's, at the very first sign of any fade at all, immediately get off the brakes and back it way down and go to the pits. my first track day in the car 4 years ago and I got a tiny bit of fade and backed off/ by the time I got to the pits a half mile later, it took me 50 feet to stop from 10mph. When they do go, they go quickly with very little warning.
